Lordy, Lordy, Our Senate's in Homophobic Overload

Our good Republican Senators want to keep not asking and not telling, and OMG we can’t “out” these warfighters! They might… what?  Resign? I don’t think so. What then, not fight as good? I don’t think so.  Our military is ready to accept people for who they are, but our good Republican senators are not.  They seem to be very content with the notion of having high quality soldiers, regardless of their sexual preference, as long as they all pretend to be straight.  

As soon as a gay or lesbian warfighter does speak up, as if they were a plain ole American living under all sorts of Constitutional rights, like free speech, etc., they’re banished back to the last century, living under defacto Jim (or Jane) Crowe social laws. How stupid is that?! Pretty stupid, but look who’s leading the charge, ready to filibuster if needed to keep our warfighters in the closet- none other than Senator John (I don’t want you in my fox hole) McCain. 

With enough bad press he may very well back off from his filibuster threat, but the gas has already been thrown on the fire. The President wants DADT overturned. So does the military. The House of Representatives has already passed the law. Forty-one holier than thou Republicans seem to know what’s best for America in marked contrast to their mantra- keep big government out of people’s lives – oops, unless you’re gay.
